Description
For Nietzsche, the Age of Greek Tragedy was indeed a tragic age. He saw in it the rise and climax of values so dear to him that their subsequent drop into catastrophe (in the person of Socrates - Plato) was clearly foreshadowed as though these were events taking place in the theater. And so in this work, unpublished in his own day but written at the same time that his The Birth of Tragedy had so outraged the German professorate as to imperil his own...

This volume provides the first English translation of Nietzsche's unpublished notes from late 1879 to early 1881, the period in which he authored Dawn, the second book in the trilogy that began with Human, All Too Human and concluded with The Joyful Science.

Pocos textos como el de esta tercera Intempestiva podrían iluminar mejor las raíces de la tarea que Nietzsche escogió como propia en fecha ya muy temprana. «¿Qué se le exige a un filósofo, en primera y última instancia? Superar en sí mismo su propio tiempo y volverse intempestivo. ¿Con qué ha de sostener su más dura batalla? Con aquello por lo cual, justamente, es hijo de su tiempo.»
«Schopenhauer como educador» es, en efecto, un poderoso...

In this, his first book, Nietzsche developed a way of thinking about the arts that unites the Greek gods Apollo and Dionysus as the central symbol of human existence. Although tragedy serves as the focus of this work, music, visual art, dance, and the other arts can also be viewed using Nietzsche's analysis and integration of the Apollonian and the Dionysian. The Birth of Tragedy stands alongside Aristotle's Poetics as an essential work for all who...

L'existence même de ce livre suscita de vives polémiques et aujourd'hui encore la fiabilité de certains passages reste à prouver, des études philologiques récentes ayant mis à découvert de nombreuses erreurs...
